Scanning methods for focus control for lithographic processing of reconstituted wafers
Abstract:
A method of processing a reconstituted wafer that supports IC chips includes operably disposing the reconstituted wafer in a lithography tool that has a depth of focus and a focus plane and that defines exposure fields on the reconstituted wafer, wherein each exposure field includes at least one of the IC chips. The method also includes scanning the reconstituted wafer with a line scanner to measure a surface topography of the reconstituted wafer as defined by the IC chips. The method also includes, for each exposure field: i) adjusting a position and/or an orientation of the reconstituted wafer so that a photoresist layers of the IC chips within the given exposure field fall within the depth of focus; and ii) performing an exposure with the lithography tool to pattern the photoresist layers of the IC chips in the given exposure field.
